History was probably my least favorite subject in school. It seemed like it was just a bunch of unrelated trivia you had to memorize and the class moved so quickly you never really had time to study any particular event or issue in depth.
History is much more fun outside the school system. With no schedule to follow you’re free to really study in depth the causes and effects of whatever historic events catch your eye. Plus there are no tests to dock you points for forgetting how to spell the names of ancient historical figures.
